How to find out your fault error code on xbox 360

[luke allmighty]

The E-code only shows up if you get 1 red light, otherwise there is no video output and you cant see it(for 2, 3 and 4 red lights)...(in rare cases it doesn't even show up if you get 1 red light, proceed with the secondary error code then)

How to get the Secondary error code


The specific type of hardware failure can be determined by a "hidden" error code

* Turn the Xbox 360 on, and wait till the 3 red lights are flashing.
* Press and hold the sync up button (the small white one), while holding that button press the eject button.
* The LED's will now blink the first number in the code (as described below).
* Release the eject button and press it again.
* The LED's will now blink the second number of the code.
* Release the eject button and press it again.
* The LED's will now blink the third number of the code.
* Release the eject button and press it again.
* The LED's will now blink the forth number of the code.
* Release the eject button and press it again.
* The LED's will go back to the 3 red flashing lights.

You should be able to determine the difference between the 3 flashing lights and the error code lights by the rate in which they flash.

Here is how you interpret the LED's to get the code number:

* All four lights flashing - 0
* One light flashing - 1
* Two Lights flashing - 2
* Three lights flashing - 3



You will for example get an error code like 0102 if you get 4 lights after the first click, 1 after the second, 4 after the third and 2 after the fourth click of the eject button...
